Day 2 in the books. Led a panel on the North American Great Commission Report focused on secularization and Gen Z. Also go to facilitate the Collaboration on Digital Church, awesome to see leaders across the world sorting through challenges and potential together.

First day for L4 in the books. Great to see old friends and to explore Korea but this worship set will be a lasting impression. Over 5K leaders from around the world but it felt like 50K. A great way to be reminded of the immensity of God’s Kingdom.

Made it to L4 in Seoul. Excited to connect with old friends, hear what God is doing around the globe, and develop strategy for the next generation of Kingdom ministry.

ALS is a destroyer and the Snows are incredible people. If you don’t know their story, it’s well worth your time.
Today we hugged Chris for the last time and said goodbye as he went to give four people the gift of life by donating his kidneys, liver and lungs. We are deeply broken and deeply proud. In life and in death, Chris never stopped giving. We walk forward with his light guiding us.

I understand what Moore means and I likely agree with his intention. Yet the problem with superficial ambiguity in this venue is it invites the audience to populate the beliefs and actions that constitute “un-Christian.” As a result, I’m unsure what this actually accomplishes.
Asked about a sentiment that Christians are “hated” in modern-day America, @drmoore says, “I believe often we are hated not for how Christian we are, but for how un-Christian we are, and that, I think, is something that we have to reclaim.” #TAF23

Todd is one of the best thinkers on digital mission and his work is already making a significant impact for churches and ministry leaders. I’m really looking forward to diving into some of his research.
Join @Aemacd and I on September 13 for a free webinar hosted by the @WheatonBGC Digital Mission Consortia on best practices in ministry in digital environments. It's going to be a great time! Register here: buff.ly/3PluImY

Not even the most famous American mugshot. Capone, King, Elvis… all more important and “famous.”
The Trump mug shot is now the most famous photo in American history. No hyperbole. What’s more famous?

Heartbreaking. Young man on the verge of his dream but still used the tragedy to tell others about his faith.
It is we great sadness that we announce the passing of Rodion Amirov. Two years ago, Rodion was diagnosed with a brain tumour. From the moment he received the news, he refused to speak in the negative, determined to enjoy every day, facing it with the same positive attitude he showed during his hockey career. We will always remember his courage, his desire, his will, his smile, all of the great things about him. We’d like to thank his doctors, who took great care of him. We’d like to thank the Toronto Maple Leafs and his KHL - Salavat Yulayev Ufa team. Both did everything possible to help in any way, do whatever was necessary for Rodion and the Amirov family. And we’d like to thank hockey fans all over the world who sent notes of encouragement and best wishes over the past two years. They meant so much to the Amirov family.

Tarring winsomeness in Christian mission as a veil for “getting people to like you” has to be one of dumbest and self-destructive critiques that continues to get play.

Thankful for these parents praying and reading scripture over their kids and the faculty/staff of @WheatonCollege. A powerful model of faithfulness and a reminder of the treasure with which we’ve been entrusted.

Excellent book insofar as it rejects tired questions in its investigation of the ways evangelicals construct identity. With the explosion of an “evangelical crisis” genre, Prior offers a novel and important shift in how we explore the movement.

So in short, the drawbacks are it might subtly introduce heresy, diminish actual bible engagement, blur denominational differences, and undermine church authority. All without getting to the underlying anthropological problems. But sure, go for it.

Hey @biolau, can you come get your new Dean, @edstetzer? He barricaded himself in his old office and has refused to stop singing.

I love hockey but journalists like LeBrun and leadership like Parros is why it’s so far beyond other sports. It deserves so much better.

First the Leafs win and then Boston gets humiliated. This level of sports joy is entirely foreign to me.

There are unpopular takes but this is so bad I can only conclude Bettman is holding his family hostage.
Gary Bettman isn't perfect, but he's done a great job as Commissioner of the NHL.

Two tips on healthy social media 1) Work on discerning the gap between substantive criticism/rebuke and farming outrage. 2) Be honest with yourself (and others) when those you followed who started as the former become the latter.
